    555 unlock Chances?

    How big of a chance can you get if you buy a 555 now and unlock it to 4x.
    Because in this past month i seen fewer 555 unlock to a 4x, but maybe its just me. What do you all think?

    the chances on a x3 is deffinatly higher then 30% ... id say at least 70% ... but on a quad its 40-50% id guess ... but sometimes you dont get lucky at all ...

    From the 3 we had here, all unlocked to 4 cores... pretty good bang for the buck ! (if it unlocks :p)
    Question : Why do some overclockers switch into d*ckmode when money is involved

    Remark : They call me Pro Asus Saaya yupp, I agree

    The X2 550's normal unlock. You should be fine. Worst case you sell it for a slight loss and try again or just get a real Quad. X4 940's BE can be had for really cheap now.
